In Investiture of the Gods, Grace Bennett was originally a kind-hearted and stunningly beautiful woman, but on her way to the palace, she was killed by the nine-tailed fox spirit and possessed by it, later committing a series of heinous crimes.
The Grace Bennett before him was clearly not the original Grace Bennett, because her race was the nine-tailed demon fox.
In the original novel, Grace Bennett’s appearances were few, and later generations only remembered her as a calamity to the nation and a cruel schemer; her strength was never a focus.
He never expected her to have the power of the fifth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm—it was hard to imagine how terrifying those great beings in mythology must be.
Sun Wukong could somersault 108,000 li in a single leap; just thinking about that speed made Eric Carter click his tongue in amazement.
The entire territory of the Qianyue Kingdom didn’t even have a diameter of 108,000 li.
“I’ll fight you to the end!”
The captain of the imperial guards wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and charged at Grace Bennett with his sword. He was extremely fast; an ordinary person wouldn’t have time to react at all, and even Eric Carter wouldn’t be able to resist.
Grace Bennett pressed her delicate hand downward, and the captain of the guards fell directly at her feet.
Bang!
Grace Bennett stepped on the captain’s back with her right foot. The ground cracked like a spider web, and the captain couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood. His eyes became unfocused, and his breath grew weak.
“Damn! So violent!”
Eric Carter’s eyelid twitched. Grace Bennett looked delicate and frail, but he hadn’t expected her strength to be so ferocious.
Perhaps among those of the same level, Grace Bennett’s strength was considered below average, but when facing ants at the Qi Refining Realm, her power was absolutely terrifying!
“Step aside!”
Eric Carter stared at the captain and said. Grace Bennett obediently moved out of the way.
Coming up to the captain, Eric Carter squatted down and smiled innocently. “What did you just say? Who’s the crazy one?”
“You! Useless... Your Maj—”
The captain’s eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze toward Eric Carter was full of hatred. After all, he had lost to Grace Bennett, and now being mocked by Eric Carter, he felt his dignity trampled.
Slap!
Eric Carter slapped him right across the face. Damn it, about to die and still daring to mock me!
That slap scattered the captain’s last breath, killing him on the spot.
“Ding! Killed a fifth-level Qi Refining Realm soldier! Gained 50 experience points!”
“Ding! Congratulations, host, you have activated the personal profile template!”
What the heck?
Experience points? Personal profile template?
Eric Carter was stunned. At the same time, a surge of heat welled up from within him.
Immediately after, a light screen appeared before his eyes:
“Host: Eric Carter!”
“Race: Human!”
“Level: Qi Refining Realm, Level 2 (150/200 experience points)!”
“Bloodline: None!”
“Divine Powers: None!”
“Cultivation Method: Qi Refining Technique (Mortal Grade, Intermediate).”
“Summoned Divine Demon: Grace Bennett!”
What the hell!
Why does this feel like playing an online game?
Eric Carter’s eyes widened in disbelief. At that moment, the system’s voice sounded in his mind: “Because the host comes from 21st-century Earth, the system has specially adopted a data format similar to Earth’s games to help the host adapt!”
“What is the real purpose of the Myth System?” Eric Carter asked uneasily.
There’s no such thing as a free lunch!
Having struggled in the workplace for years, Eric Carter knew this well. There was no way the Myth System would cultivate him for nothing.
“The host is too weak and is temporarily unqualified to know the system’s ultimate goal!”
That left Eric Carter speechless. After hesitating for a while, he could only push his worries to the back of his mind.
Life is like... well, if you can’t resist, you might as well enjoy it!
“Cripple the rest so they’re completely unable to fight, then let me finish them off myself!”
Eric Carter stood up and ordered. Although it was his first time killing, and he felt a bit uncomfortable, in this world where the strong prey on the weak, he couldn’t afford to be soft-hearted.
These imperial guards had been sent by the Fifth Prince, Brian Carter. Now, the entire imperial guard was under Brian Carter’s control, making them the enemy. Besides, these guards had bullied him all along the way, so Eric Carter certainly wouldn’t let them go.
Grace Bennett was extremely efficient. In less than three seconds, the remaining guards were all lying on the ground like dead dogs, their bones shattered, unable to move.
Eric Carter forced down his disgust, drew the captain’s long sword, and personally ended their lives.
“Ding! Killed a fifth-level Qi Refining Realm soldier! Gained 40 experience points!”
“Ding! Killed a fifth-level Qi Refining Realm soldier! Gained 35 experience points!”
“Ding! Congratulations, host, you have advanced to Qi Refining Realm, Level 3!”
……
The system prompts sounded one after another. Fourteen imperial guards directly pushed him to Qi Refining Realm, Level 4. The surging true qi in his body made him want to howl with excitement!
Awesome!
Like a carp leaping over the dragon gate!
Eric Carter was incredibly excited. At this moment, he felt like he could punch through a tree as thick as a thigh!
Two levels up in a row!
At this rate, I’m going to become a superman!
